    I have received a parking charge at East Midlands Airport on the BP filling station  forecourt. I was looking for petrol but it was closed and it was dark. Stopped for a minute only.

    Further to the PCN issued, they (EMA) did not respond to our appeal in the first instance ... the latest 28 days. So, instead they sent a notice via DCBL for unpaid parking charge. The vehicle wasn't parked it stopped at the petrol pumps. Any help please?

    DCB Limited are debt collectors and can be ignored (please read all about harmless debt collectors in the NEWBIES FAQ Announcement, fourth post).  You only need to take some action if you receive a Letter Of/Before Claim from the PPC's solicitors, or a County Court Claim via the Northampton CNBC, come back to this thread for further advice. 

    To get ahead of the curve, you could prepare yourself with a bit of gentle reading of the NEWBIES FAQ Announcement, second post, and the Template Defence Announcement, both situated near the top of the forum thread list. 
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
